Local document extraction with no API key — read the file, not the whole file.

Verified for:

Install

$ npx skills add run-llama/llamaparse-agent-skills --skill liteparse

Needs Node 18+ and @llamaindex/liteparse. No API key — unlike the llamaparse skill in the same repo.

Best for

Looking up a figure or table inside a large document without burning context on the parts you do not need.

Not ideal for

Complex layout reconstruction or scanned-image OCR — the hosted llamaparse skill in the same repo is the heavier option for that.

About this skill

Use when a task involves reading a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, XLSX, or image and pulling text, tables, or specific values out of it. Fast, local, model-free extraction through the lit CLI, with low-cost search patterns instead of loading whole documents into context.
